Import.io Review (2024): Pricing, Pros & Cons

Import.io helps to train the same extractor with multiple different pages so that when a website displays different data variations on the same page types, the extractor is already familiar with all variations.

Import.io's auto-optimization of extractors ensures that the extractors can run in the shortest possible time whenever they are saved.

Import.io uses patterns such as page numbers and category names to automatically generate all the URLs you need in seconds.

Data can be extracted from multiple pages because Import.io automatically detects paginated lists. Individual users can also explicitly click the "next" page to help Import.io learn.

Import.io helps ensure compliance and accuracy by allowing users to capture and save screenshots of each page from which data was extracted. This feature is easily accessible and useful, as it creates an auditable record of the data extracted.

Authenticated extraction allows users to obtain data that is only available after logging into a website. The user provides the appropriate credentials and Import.io does the rest.

Users can download images and documents along with all web data in one pass. Retailers pull product images from manufacturers, data scientists build computer vision training sets.

With Import.io, users can easily set up their web data extraction to run "on the fly" using preset or custom schedules: weekly, daily, hourly, whatever their business needs. They can set it and forget it.

Import.io helps you record sequences of actions you need to perform on a website. For example, a user may need to navigate between pages, enter a search term, or change the default sort order of a list.

Import.io makes it easy for users to show us how to extract data from a page. They simply select a column in their dataset and point to the item of interest on the page. With machine learning auto-suggestion, they can go from URL to dataset in one click.
